[rochester-pm-list] foreach question...

[Fred Edmister]

         I just meant any array, or method of opening the file and 
splitting the lines into individule editable variables... I guess I should 
have said if I use "foreach" OR any type of array, scalar, or any other 
method... All I was curious about was if it's possible to split the lines 
and make them singally editable and appendable to a text file... Otherwise, 
I'l leave it as just opening the file, and having it edited that way... But 
thank you for the reference to the docs...
